INSTALLATION MANUAL www.craftbot.com 1. INTRODUCTION For best print quality, some filaments may need to stabilize the build area temperature. This can significantly reduce the possibility of warping printed objects. That’s why we also offer the elegant and durable printer cover and door for Craftbot printers. Learning from previous feedback, the dome now consists of two parts so that we can easily reach the machine if necessary. The door was fitted with an electric lock so that we could even open it remotely. This manual walks you through the steps of installing the dome.
